Save the Date: Walk the Dog Day on Sept. 24

​What does the term "walking the dog" mean, you ask? It originates from the North East of England, where people refers to Newcastle Brown Ale as "Dog" because people would often use the saying, "Going to walk the dog" to grab a pint at the local pub.

So next week, OC Weekly's Heard Mentality and Newcastle are hosting "Walk the Dog Day" at 2nd Floor in Huntington Beach, with drink-all-you-can beer and music by the Silent Comedy (pictured above)! It's going to be held on Sept. 24, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Invites are limited, but since you're a Heard Mentality reader, you get first dibs at an exclusive invite. (Find out how after the jump.)

Good luck and happy dog walking!
